This sweet girl is known for her affectionate nature and gentle demeanor, quickly warming up to new friends in the shelter.

Peggy enjoys cuddles and occasionally likes to play games like tag, proving her playful spirit. While she may not grasp fetch just yet, she will undoubtedly engage in various activities once settled in a lively household. It’s important to note Peggy does not get along well with cats, so a dog-friendly home is essential. She is house-trained and up-to-date on vaccinations but will need to be spayed before adoption.
